On the morning of September 22, 3013 in the Tang calendar, Xu Haoming, the premier of the Tang Empire, personally held a press conference to denounce the Sharad Empire for deliberately provoking a naval war, and then framed the despicable methods of the Tang Empire, and declared-for-tat that if the Sharad Empire did not explain to the Tang Empire as soon as possible and compensate for the losses of the Royal Navy of the Tang Empire, then the Tang Empire would not rule out the use of force to maintain the dignity of the Tang Empire.

Just two days after the Tang Empire issued its own tough voice, that is, on September 24, 3013 in the Tang calendar, the seven countries of Yingluoba, Sharad, Noomi, Monia, Gisk, Ruierland, and Orenza jointly issued an ultimatum to the Tang Empire.

The Tang Empire is required to pay economic compensation for the warships and personnel lost by the Salad Royal Navy in the naval battle near the port of Xingang City, and the compensation amount is set at 10 billion Sha Yuan, equivalent to 20 billion silver dollars, and the Tang Imperial Navy also needs to hand over the captains of all the warships involved in this naval battle, as well as the commander who commanded this naval battle, to accept the trial of the Sharad Empire.

The Seven-Nation Alliance also requires that the number of active capital ships of the Tang Empire Navy must be controlled within eighty, and the total strength of the Tang Empire's army is not allowed to exceed four million.

At the same time, the Seven-Nation Alliance also demanded that the number of active capital ships of the Purple Moon Empire Navy must be controlled within fifty, and the total strength of the Purple Moon Empire's army should not exceed two and a half million.

In the end, the Seven Nations Alliance gave the Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire five days to consider, and if the Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire did not agree to the Seven Alliance's request after five days, all the consequences would be borne by the Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire.

In the face of the unreasonable demands of the Seven Nations Alliance, the Tang Empire made a tough response on the same day, the Tang Empire will never agree to any shameless demands of the Seven Nations Alliance, and there is no need to wait for another five days, you will fight!

The Purple Moon Empire immediately made a strong refutation to the Seven-Nation Alliance's ultimatum to limit the size of the Purple Moon Empire's navy and army, declaring that the Purple Moon Empire, like the Tang Empire, would not be threatened by any country, and although the Purple Moon Empire was unwilling to join the war, it was not afraid of war.

Seeing that the attitude of the Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire was so tough, the Seven Nations Alliance announced that all countries had entered a state of war readiness, and at eight o'clock in the morning of September 29, 2013 in the Tang calendar, the Seven Nations Alliance officially sent a declaration of war to the Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire, and at ten o'clock in the morning of the same day, the Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire announced at the same time that they had entered a state of war with the seven countries of Yingluoba, Sharad, Noomi, Monia, Gisk, Ruierland, and Orenza, so that a war that almost swept the entire world began.

On the evening of September 29, in a dormitory in the Imperial Palace of Chang'an City, Ouyang Xue, the empress of the Tang Empire and the empress of the Purple Moon Empire, said to Su Yi worriedly while breastfeeding her son Su Huai: "Your Majesty, this time our Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire will face seven world powers, can our Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire win?" ”

Su Yi looked at his son Su Huai, who was breastfeeding, and comforted Ouyang Xue: "Queen, you can take care of our precious son with peace of mind!" The final victors of this war must be our Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire, and I have prepared a lot of killer tools for the Seven Nations Alliance! ”

Ouyang Xue hurriedly asked, "Your Majesty, what is the killer feature you are talking about?" ”

Su Yi smiled slightly, and introduced the current submarine force of the Royal Navy of the Tang Empire, as well as the armored forces of the Royal Army of the Tang Empire, as well as the Royal Air Force of the Tang Empire, which was secretly established, to Ouyang Xue one by one, and briefly introduced the current general situation of the naval and land forces of the Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire.

Su Yi patted his chest and promised: "Empress rest assured, at the beginning of next year, I can still provide a large number of warships, chariots and warplanes for the armies of the two countries, after this war, the Liuyun Empire and the Celestial Star Empire will also be included in my rule, maybe at the end of the war, our Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire can get more results." ”

When Ouyang Xue heard this, the expression on her face couldn't help but relax, and then Ouyang Xue rolled her eyes at Su Yi and said, "Your Majesty, it turns out that you have hidden so many things from me, which has made me worry for so long. ”

Su Yi said with a smile: "I really complain, in the past few days before and after I ascended the throne, there have been so many things that I forgot to tell the queen about these things." ”

Ouyang Xue suddenly asked Su Yi, "Your Majesty, when are you going to merge the Purple Moon Empire into the Tang Empire?" ”

Su Yi then said: "If there is no Seven Nations Alliance to declare war on the Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire, then I am ready to merge the Purple Moon Empire into the Tang Empire at the end of this year, but now that the Seven Nations Alliance has declared war on the Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire, in order to avoid the chaos that may be caused by the merger of the Purple Moon Empire into the Tang Empire, I have to suppress this matter for the time being, and wait for the war to end." ”

Ouyang Xue frowned and said: "Now that the military power of the Purple Moon Empire's naval and land armies is firmly controlled by the emperor, what kind of chaos can the Purple Moon Empire's merger into the Tang Empire cause?" ”

Su Yi shook his head and said: "Empress, don't forget, the mysterious force hidden within the Purple Moon Empire, we haven't found any clues so far, now that the big war is imminent, I don't want the backyard to catch fire, everything is based on stability first." ”

In a newly built mansion in Purple Moon City, the capital of the Purple Moon Empire, a middle-aged officer wearing a gray-green military uniform said to a young man with some excitement: "Young Master, now the Seven Nations Alliance has officially declared war on the Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire!" ”

The young man looked at the middle-aged officer with a strange gaze, "The Seven Nations Alliance has declared war on the Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire, what are you excited about?" ”

The middle-aged officer hurriedly said, "Young master, after the outbreak of war, we have a chance to fish in troubled waters!" ”

The young man waved his hand, sighed and said: "Tell our people, be honest, do whatever you have to do, don't make any moths in this war, strive to make more military achievements, and control more military power." ”

The middle-aged officer asked with some puzzlement, "Young Master, maybe this war with the Seven Nations Alliance is a good opportunity for us to take over the entire Purple Moon Empire." ”

The young man said calmly: "If this war, the Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire are defeated, then the Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire will inevitably be divided by the Seven Nations Alliance, and even if I become the emperor of the Purple Moon Empire at that time, I will only be a puppet of the Seven Nations Alliance, that is not what I want." ”

At nine o'clock in the morning of October 1, 3013 in the Tang calendar, Su Yi made a public speech to the military and civilians of the entire Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire through the radio.

In this speech, Su Yi first disclosed the unreasonable demands of the Seven Nations Alliance on the Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire, and then Su Yi announced that the Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire would never give in to bandits like the Seven Nations Alliance, and Su Yi would lead the military and civilians of the two countries to fight a bloody battle with these bandit countries to the end, and Su Yi called on all Tang people, regardless of age or age, north or south, to participate in this Tang people's war against aggression.

In the end, Su Yi said: "I firmly believe that justice will defeat evil, light will defeat darkness, and in the end, the victory of this war must belong to our Tang Empire and the Purple Moon Empire!" It must belong to all of our Don people! ”

In the open space of a village in Changyang County, Pingfu County, Southern Hebei Province, the Tang Empire, there were two or three thousand people standing densely, some old and some young, but all men, they quietly listened to the sound of the iron horn on the long wooden pole, and this voice was Su Yi's.

After Su Yi's half-hour-long speech, an old man climbed on a wooden platform, holding a horn rolled with iron sheets in his hand, and shouted in a loud voice: "The old and young masters of Gejia Village, thanks to the emperor's Hongfu, our Gejia Village has finally lived a good life for a few days, and the people who had no land before have now divided the land, and the families have a little surplus money in their hands, many people have also entered the factory, and the children can also go to the school in the town to study for free, but the big guys have heard the emperor say it with their own ears, Now there are seven bandit states united, they don't want us to continue to live a good life, they want to invade our homes, rob our property, and harm our sisters, old and young masters of Gejia Village, you say! Can we say yes? ”

"Can't—can't—" shouted two or three thousand people in unison.

The old man waved his fist and shouted, "Good! Since the big guys don't want to be slaves of the country, then we must respond to His Majesty's call, regardless of the old and the young, the north and the south, and fight those robber countries to the end! ”

"Do it to the end—do it to the end—" Two or three thousand people echoed in unison.

The old man then said: "Some of you have joined the reserves, and you will all go to the county seat tomorrow to gather, and I, Ge Lao Liu, am here to assure all the old and young masters who have joined our army of the Tang Empire that if you are glorious on the battlefield, your wives and children, we will help you raise them in the entire Gejia Village, and all the old and young masters who sacrificed their lives for the country can enter the ancestral hall of our Gejia Village, and be worshiped and supported by their descendants from generation to generation!" ”

After a pause, the old man said: "The men who have not joined our army of the Tang Empire, all those over the age of sixteen and under the age of fifty, all join the militia company of Gejia Village, starting tomorrow, they will participate in training in the morning and evening, if the army of those robber countries dares to come to our Gejia Village, the old and young masters of our Gejia Village, as long as there is one person alive, we will fight with them to the end!" ”

After the crowd dispersed, a strong man in his forties walked up to the old man and sighed and said, "Dad, you let me be the company commander of the militia company, but you can get me some weapons!" I can't let the enemy come, I'll take the old and young masters of our Gejia Village, and do it with them with my bare hands, right? ”

The old man pondered for a while and said: "My father has asked, the county can only send a small number of breech single-shot rifles and a few boxes of grenades to the militia companies in each village in a short period of time, and we have to find our own way for other weapons, don't we have a lot of shotguns in our village, first equip the militia company, and then let the blacksmith make some big knives and spear heads, listen to the meaning of the county, and when the reserve forces in various places are fully equipped with weapons, they will equip the militia units in various places with more weapons." ”

The strong man nodded and said, "I have to put up the shelves of the militia company first, and teach the big guys how to shoot, Dad, when can those rifles and grenades be fired?" ”

The old man said: "Tomorrow I will take a few juniors and go to the county seat with the seventy or so people who joined the reserve to bring back the rifles and grenades. ”
